Lyrics for Come Back Down as interpreted by plasticflowers

Come Back Down Lyrics
Staring right back in the face,
a memory can't be erased.
I know, because I tried.

Start to feel the emptiness
and everything I'm gonna miss.
I know that I can't hide.

All this time is passing by
I think it's time to just move on

When you come back down,
if you land on your feet,
I hope you find a way
to make it back to me.

When you come around,
I'll be there for you.
Don't have to be alone
with what you're going through.

Start to breathe and fake a smile,
it's all the same after a while.
I know that you are tired.

Carrying the ones you lost,
a picture frame with all the thoughts
I know you hold inside.

I hope that you can find your way back
To the place where you belong

When you come back down,
if you land on your feet,
I hope you find a way
to make it back to me.

When you come around,
I'll be there for you.
Don't have to be alone
with what you're going through.

You’re coming back down
You said you feel lost - can I help you find it?
When you come around
From time to time, we all are blinded
You’re coming back down
You don't have to tell me what you’re feeling,
I know what you’re going through.
I won’t be the one who lets go of you.

I think it's time to just move on

When you come back down,
if you land on your feet,
I hope you find a way
to make it back to me.

When you come around,
I'll be there for you.
Don't have to be alone
with what you're going through.

When you come back down,
if you land on your feet,
I hope you find a way
to make it back to me.

When you come around,
I'll be there for you.
Don't have to be alone
with what you're going through.

I'm a huge Lifehouse fan. This song means alot to me, and I can really compare with what he's saying. My girlfriend was having a really rough time a couple months ago, and she only wanted to be alone. She shut me out, and didn't want me to help her because she thought I'd get in the way. What Jason Wade is basically saying is "When you get better again, please remember me, and what we had together even though you want to be alone right now, I hope you know that I'll be there to help you if you need it. Come back to me."

Another part that I can really compare to is when he says

"Start to feel the emptiness
and everything I'm gonna miss.
I know that I can't hide."

It reminds me of the pain I feel when I'm not sure what's gonna happen. She could be fine, or be hurting, and I can't do anything to help her.

"Staring right back in the face,
a memory can't be erased.
I know, because I tried."

He's stating how hard it is to just let someone go like that, it's nearly impossible, and he's tried many times.

this is one deep song...my new favorite!

i think it means he's trying to forget about a girl but he just can't and that he'll always be there for her if she ever decides to come back to him

I'm considering that this song can also be refering to death...

"Staring right back in the face,
a memory can't be erased.
I know, because I tried.

Start to feel the emptiness
and everything I'm gonna miss.
I know that I can't hide."

and

"Start to breathe and fake a smile,
it's all the same after a while.
I know that you are tired.

Carrying the ones you lost,
a picture frame with all the thoughts
I know you hold inside.

I hope that you can find your way back
To the place where you belong"

The way that this beautiful song intertwines with those specific parts makes it seem--or at least to me--that this song has to do with dealing with a loved one's death.

I think the girl is having some problems with her family/friends [I personally think it's about drugs but thats just me] or something. Then she choses to break up with the guy because she's too stressed out to be in a relationship.
I think that the narrator is saying that he loves her and once she gets through this horrible time in her life, that He'll still be there for her because he just cant get over her.

this to me, is that the girl let him, and he still loves her with everything she had. she left him because i think it was a matter of that she had to find herself, or she thaught she was better off without him, so she leaves. and he's telling her then when she comes back down and realizes how important he was to her and how much she needs him, he'll be there for her.

Sound to me like he's moving to a different place, leaving all of his friends behind.

LOL u guys might as well call their band DeathHouse ... I'd doubt this song is about death,.. well anywho the music is great its somewhat relaxing especially the intro.

I think its about a break up, the girl's mind is just too messed up thats why they broke up. And the vocal is saying he understands her and will be there for her no matter what and hes waiting for her to "come back down".. the "I think it's time to just move on" part is hes saying to the girl to just "let go" of whatever it is thats bothering her
